Cyrano de Bergerac, Savinien. Histoire comique des états et empires de la luna. Paris: Le Bret, 1657. Also Histoire comique des états et empires du soleil. Paris: Charles de Sercy, 1662. ("Lively Stories of the Empires of Moon and Sun.") Combined volumes translated as Other Worlds. Geoffrey Strachan. New York: Oxford UP, 1965.

"As fast-paced yarns combining cosmic travel, libertin philosophizing, and a host of technological marvels, Cyrano's works are perhaps France's first true SF novels" (Arthur B. Evans, "Science Fiction in France . . . ," SFS 16.3 [Nov. 1989]: 268-69 [citations], 255 [for the quoted sentence]).
